Multiplayer Medals
If you do the following things you will get the medal while playing multiplayer. When you do the task usually it will show you by a little icon of the said medal appearing in the corner of the screen. Also at the end of each match you can check what medals you got. You can also check your overall medal count on bungie’s official website. A very small amount of these are secret medals in that they don’t tell you right when you get them but they will appear in your medal history. (One example of such a medal is the Steaktacular! Medal)
